If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear. - George Orwell

We have yet to hear any condemnation by Muslim leaders.

The United Nations said Tuesday that a Somali stoned to death by Islamist militants after she had been accused of adultery was a 13-year-old girl who had been raped while visiting her grandmother.

In the first such public killing by the militants in about two years, she was placed in a hole and stoned to death on Oct. 28 in a rebel-held port city, Kismayu, in front of a crowd, after local leaders said she was guilty under Shariah, the legal code of Islam based on the Koran.

Witnesses said at the time that the victim had been a 23-year-old woman.

“Reports indicate that she had been raped by three men while traveling on foot to visit her grandmother in the war-torn capital, Mogadishu,” Unicef, the United Nations children’s agency, said in a statement.

“Following the assault, she sought protection from the authorities, who then accused her of adultery and sentenced her to death,” Unicef added. “A child was victimized twice — first by the perpetrators of the rape and then by those responsible for administering justice.”

Unicef said the episode highlighted the vulnerability of girls and women in Somalia, which has suffered under cycles of civil conflict for the past 17 years. In the latest cycle, Islamist rebels are fighting the government and their Ethiopian military backers.

Rebel spokesmen could not be reached immediately to respond to Unicef’s accusation.

The human rights group Amnesty International has identified the girl as Aisha Ibrahim Duhulow and said she was killed by 50 men who stoned her in a stadium in Kismayu in front of about 1,000 spectators.

Her father and other sources were quoted by Amnesty International as saying that she had been raped by three men.

When the family tried to report the rape to the Shabab militia that controls Kismayu, the girl was accused of adultery and was detained. None of the men she accused of rape have been arrested.

Simon and Hilath. Allah, the supreme god of the Kaaba has 99 attributes including al-Mutakabbir (arrogant) and al-Jabbar (heinous) [there are other translations too of these terms]. None of Allah's attributes include al-Hubb (Love). Some Islamic propagandists such as the Late Ahmed Deedat even bragged about this, saying that al-Hubb is a soft attribute of the Judeo-Christian God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

This is significant in understanding why, for example, the Mediaeval Roman Catholic Church was able to abandon the Holy Inquisition, while Islam is unable to shake off the barbaric heritage of Mohamed.

Anonymous, there is some debate (ikhtilaf) as to whether stoning to death for adultery (rajam) is sanctioned by Allah of the Kaaba. According to Umar bin al-Khattab the Koran contained the verse on rajam, but the verse did not survive Uthman bin al-Affan's edition and revision of the Koran. According to a non-Sahih Hadith, the verse was in a parchment of a section of the Koran that was eaten by Aysha bint Abu Bakr's pet goat and so did not make it to Usman's version of the Koran that Sunni Muslims now have.

anonymous,Dhivehi Christian is actually teaching you the truth about your own Islam!The bad about Islam, Allah your creator and your prophet Muhammadh is in the Koran and hadith.It is also in the words and actions of Muslims like you.When you can differentiate between good and bad, you will understand that Islam is vile, vulgar, dangerous and inhuman. As long as you believe things without asking questions, people can brainwash you. But You do not ask questions because - "O ye who believe! Ask not questions about things which if made plain to you, may cause you trouble... Some people before you did ask such questions, and on that account lost their faith." (Quran. 5:101-102)

I admit I haven't done much research into God's attributes as found in Islam, so I am not sure whether Dhivehi Christian's claims that al-Hubb (Love) is not an attribute of Allah is true. My general understanding was that al-Hubb was a quality of Allah.Anyway, since Christians make such a big thing of ascribing Love to Jesus (or the Trinity which by the way I don't think any sane person can understand; no offence OK?), I am aware that Love is a big thing in Christianity. Well, frankly I am happy about it because such great emphasis have helped to promote understanding and tolerance in the West and raised it from the Dark Ages.But I still do wonder why the Inquisition (killing of 'heretics' by the Church) took place if Christianity is so concerned with love, understanding and tolerance. I mean, aren't they also guilty of extremism and fundamentalism? How many abortion clinics have been bombed in America? How many gays and lesbians have been cold-bloodedly murdered in America?Anyways, I appreciate the fact that a lot of good have resulted because the Christian West places so much emphasis on Love. The evidence? Well, look at all the tsunami aid. It came from the West mainly. Our Arab and Muslim "brothers" and "sisters" of the Ummah only gave meagre help. How much aid did oil-rich countries like Saudi Arabia give to tsunami-hit countries? Basically, nothing. I wonder why the Maldives' government bothers at all to keep diplomatic relations with such barbaric and inhumane states as Saudi Arabia.So I guess Love is a winning concept. But I don't think any one religion can lay claim to Love; I mean I don't think Christianity can claim Love as its own because most of the moderate Muslim Maldivian friends I know are quite loving of one another and quite tolerant, too. You can find many of them here on Maldivian Blogosphere. Peace.

I have just re-checked the 99 attributes of Allah in Arabic and al-Hubb or any of its synonyms are not among them.

The Inquisition was conceived by Church leaders of the time. They were not acting on the example set by Jesus Christ. On the other hand Islamic barbarism has its foundations in the personal example set by Mohamed himself. Mohamed personally ordered killing and torture. He personally participated in slavery and the rape of non-combatant female prisoners of war. You only have to listen to the Seerah you hear on VOM during Ramadan to see that he committed these acts of barbarism.

If your moderate Muslim friends find these acts unacceptable then surely they must find Mohamed a most deplorable human specimen.

Since history is written by human beings, we can't really establish beyond doubt what really happened -- whether the accusations you have made against Mohamed are true, AND whether the "example" you claim to have set by Jesus is also true. That's why it's better not to bother. "Organised" religion is man-made as any rational person should now be able to deduce by himself/herself. :-)

"The strongest proof of real, extremely despotic power in Islam is the fact that it has been able to invalidate, in such large measure, the entire history (customs, religion, previous way of looking at things, earlier imagination) of the peoples converted to it. It accomplished this only by instilling into them a new religious arrogance which was stronger than everything and induced them to be ashamed of their past."

"Is the fate of gradually becoming an Arab nation the Maldive Islanders' only option?This is the Maldivian dilemma since they made the decision to accept the Arabs as their undisputed cultural masters and began to sever their links with their own past.Nowadays Maldivians are culturally restless people who can never be at ease.The intense indoctrination of the 1980s and 90s, when Islamization was imposed on the islands at a much higher gear than at any time in the nation's history, has made Maldivians feel uncozy in their own country.The changes brought about have been of such magnitude and in such a short time, that there is now a whole young generation of Divehi people who, having not known how things were previously, take for granted that their home nation has always been so orthodox and impersonal."

- Xavier Romero-Frias in THE MALDIVE ISLANDERS, A Study of the Popular Culture of an Ancient Ocean Kingdom

"The Islamic conquerors took everything from the newly conquered: money, language, culture, traditions, wives, children, values. Everything. The nature of Islam is that it replaces cultures wherever it gets a foothold."

150 Maldivian Adulteresses To Be Flogged

Stop the Islamic religious duty of Fuc-Kendun in Maldives!

When a husband pronounced his wife divorce three times “thrice divorced” and wants to remarry her, he cannot do it lawfully until he pays another man “Al Mohalil”(which means the legalizer) who marries this thrice divorced woman and (had sexual intercourse or consummating the marriage with her) and then dismisses her so that she may lawfully marry her former husband.

In Quran sura al-Baqara 2:230 says,”…So if a husband divorced his wife he cannot after that remarry her until after she has married another husband, and he has divorced her, in that case there is no blame on either of them if they reunite…”

Abu Dawud (2142) - "The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: A man will not be asked as to why he beat his wife."

ISLAMIC FUK-KENDUN IS A MORAL AND PHYSICAL RAPE.

In Islam a husband can reunite with his wife after divorcing her under this condition: When a woman is divorced irrevocably, she can not return to her husband until she marries (including having sexual intercourse) with another man. "Narrated Aisha: The wife of Rifaa Al-Qurazi came to Allah's Apostle and said, 'O Allah's Apostle, Rifaa divorced me irrevocably. After him I married Abdur-Rahman bin Az-Zubair Al-Qurazi who proved to be impotent.' Allah's Apostle said to her, 'Perhaps you want to return to Rifaa? Nay (You cannot return to Rifaa ) until you and Abdur-Rahman (the impotent man) engage in sexual intercourse! '" Vol. 7:186

The making of the ancient Dhivehi island people into semi-Arab Muslims

How Dhivehi minds are groomed to become lifelong zombies that they can't apply minimum logic and reason to discover numerous obvious errors and contradictions in the Quran and Hadith and that they consider the most horrendous, unethical and barbarous actions of Muhammad as acts of great morality and humanity...

Did you know ?

Until about 100 years ago in Divehi we didn't say "salaan kurun"?We said Namaskaarakurun or Swasti(Swasti = Peace)

men & women are equal in Islam?

Women cannot touch the Koran during certain days because they are unclean

Dhivehistanis want to conquer the world for Allah

"Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into (the hearts of) the enemies, of Allah and your enemies..." -- Koran 8:60

Muslim Arab missionaries and Dhivehi collaborateurs

Muslims cite Islamic taboos and Koranic injections as more important than freedom of thinking. Freedom of expression is and always has been subject to Islamic taboos. Islamic taboos exist to keep Muslims from thinking independently and these taboos are enforced by Mullahs and Islamic rulers. Those who oppose are silenced or beheaded. Public expression against Mohammed or Allah will be labeled as apostate and those dissenters will be severely punished. Strict censorship is imposed on TV, film, magazines and newspapers by religious bodies and by the government.

"If a book be false in its facts, disprove them; if false in its reasoning, refute it. But for God's sake, let us freely hear both sides if we choose". -Thomas Jefferson, third US president, architect, and author (1743-1826)

“If these writings of the Greeks agree with the book of God, they are useless and need not be preserved; if they disagree, they are pernicious and ought to be destroyed”. - Umar the Caliph of Islam after the conquest of Alexandria in 641, ordered the great library to be destroyed.

The books were then used to heat the furnaces of the numerous bath-houses of the city.

Maldives Minister of Islamic Affairs says

"Shari’ah law ultimately requires the killing of those who leave Islam."

All smiles after being found guilty of massacring 52 Hindus in a 2003 bombing, Hanif Anees is also quite dedicated to his religion. (Care to guess which one?)

Maldives Constitution: No Citizenship for non-Muslims

Article 9, Section D : “a non-Muslim may not become a citizen of the Maldives.”

By denying citizenship to some people on the basis of their religion, the country is violating religious minorities’ freedom of worship.

“This denial of citizenship to non-Muslims is an extraordinarily harsh measure which places the Maldives among the worst countries in the world in regards to the legal foundation for freedom of religion and belief,”

What does the Koran say about Jihad?

In Islam's 3 Holy Books: 97% references to jihad relate to holy war; while only 3% relate to inner struggle

"Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion paralyzes the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world." -- Sir Winston Churchill - circa 1899
